Jones got benched last season as well, before being released by the New York Giants, who drafted him in the first round in 2019. He spent the rest of 2024 with the Minnesota Vikings, finishing the season with a 63.3 completion percentage, 2,070 yards, eight touchdowns and seven interceptions and a 2-8 record as a starter.

It's now clear that former Minnesota Vikings backup quarterback Daniel Jones signed a one-year contract with the Indianapolis Colts in free agency largely because Jones believes he can win the Indianapolis starting job from 2023 first-round draft pick Anthony Richardson this coming summer.

On an appearance on Good Morning Football, Colts' LB Zaire Franklin shared his thoughts on the Anthony Richardson, Daniel Jones QB competition.
